Abstract

This paper introduces the worldwide history of fully automatic operation (FAO) system in urban rail transit, followed by the development status in China. Then, the architecture and characteristics of the FAO system are described, and the analysis method of system design requirements is proposed based on the human factors engineering. The key technologies are introduced from the aspects of signaling system, vehicle system, communication system, traffic integrated automation system and reliability, availability, maintainability, and safety (RAMS) assurance. Furthermore, based on the independent practical experience of the FAO system, this paper summarizes the management methods for the construction and operation of FAO lines and prospects its future development trends toward a more intelligent urban rail transit system.
